Application Examples for File Management
The following sections provide detailed examples of managing files and directories on the switch.
Transferring a File to the Switch Using FTP
In this example, the user is adding the AVLAN security feature to an OmniSwitch 6800 Series switch. To
do this, the user must load the
Ksecu.img
image file onto the switch and then register the file by reboot-
ing the switch. The following steps describe how to transfer the file from the user workstation to the
switch by using an FTP client on the workstation:
1
Load the
Ksecu.img
file onto a workstation that contains an FTP client.
You will normally receive the file from the Internet, via E-mail, or on CD media. Place the file on your
workstation where it can be easily downloaded.
2
Run the FTP client software on your workstation.
Most workstations have an FTP client installed. Refer to your manufacturer’s instructions for details on
running the FTP application.
3
Log in to the switch from your FTP client.
Where the FTP client asks for Name, enter the IP address of your switch. Where the FTP client asks for
User ID, enter “admin”. Where the FTP client asks for Password, enter “switch” or your custom config-
ured password.
4
Transfer the file from the workstation to the switch by using the FTP client.
If you have a GUI FTP client, select the
Ksecu.img
file on your desktop and click the download button. If
you have a text only FTP client, use the FTP “put” command to move the file from your desktop to the
switch. In either case, you must specify a binary file transfer because the
Ksecu.img
file is a binary file.
Once the transfer is complete, the file will appear in the switch’s /
flash
/
working
directory.
5
Close the FTP session with the switch.
6
To verify that the
Ksecu.img
file is in the /
flash
/
working
directory on the switch. Log onto the switch
and list the files in the /
flash
/
working
directory.
-> ls /flash/working
Listing Directory /flash/working:
drw 2048 Aug 4 10:45 ./
drw 2048 Aug 5 14:05 ../
-rw 670979 Aug 5 14:44 Ksecu.img
-rw 2877570 Aug 4 10:33 Kbase.img
-rw 217119 Aug 4 10:33 Kdiag.img
-rw 727663 Aug 4 10:33 Keni.img
-rw 5519 Aug 4 10:34 Krelease.img
-rw 880 Sep 31 13:05 boot.cfg
This list verifies that the file is located on the switch in the /
flash
/
working
directory.
